Default AK Continuation bet

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $10/20 BB (10 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx
UTG ($2963.50)
UTG+2 ($2091)
Hero ($2027)
SB ($1952)

4th hand at the table, no info on any of the players.

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $10.
UTG calls $20, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+2 calls $20, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $120</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, SB (poster) calls $110, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, UTG+2 calls $100.

Flop: ($400) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, UTG+2 checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $200</font>, SB folds, UTG+2 calls $200.

Turn: ($800) Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
UTG+2 checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $400</font>, UTG+2 calls $400.

Q1) Do you agree with contuation bet on Flop after 2 checks?
Q2) Do you agree with firing the second barrel on the Turn?
Q3) What's the best play on the river? Is it worth trying a bluff here? (I put him on 88 or TT based on the play so far.)

Care to elaborate further?

Do you bet a different amount depending on the # of opponents? Or does it depend on the position of the opponents (I had position on both).

For some reason I thought your avatar was Hitler before you made that comment.

I bet flop, dont bet turn because you have draw (albeit not to nuts with pair on board) and you're probably behind and spewing chips. Barring read, ill shut down on turn.

The continuation bet looks good, I would rather do it heads up though, 2 opponents is the max for it prob. I would check the turn here and take a free card. I wouldn't bluff unless I got any help on the river. If he has called you so far he will probably call your river bluff.
